Principal photography on the film began in January 2017 in Atlanta, Georgia, and ended in April 2017. The film follows the Bellas, now graduated from college, reuniting for one final performance together during an overseas USO tour.

A perfect family friendly movie and one that can be enjoyed by everyone.Pitch Perfect 3 is a 2017 American musical comedy film directed by Trish Sie and written by Kay Cannon and Mike White. You know it's not a great film, or the best of the year, nor does it try to be, however there is so much fun to be had with Pitch Perfect 3, filled to the brim with light-hearted humour which is simple, laid back and clean. This is one of those movies that would be considered a guilty pleasure. ![]() There really was no reason for him to be there, and literally doesn't develop the plot in any way, and only has some relevance in the last fifteen minutes. There is also a stereotypical, unnecessary villain played by John Lithgow, who fits all the criteria for a cliché mastermind bad guy. Some of the songs were embarrassing and plain cringe worthy, but you can't bash the effort the actors put into the routine, which displays their dedication, and just proves they want to make sure the audience have an exciting time. Was it good? Well I'm no singing expert, but it seemed alright to me. There aren't any mind-numbing distractions, so you can just enjoy the bare bones simplistic structure, and there's nothing wrong with that at all! Because it's a musical, it's going to contain music and dance. No IMAX mind-blowing wide shots or expert special effects, but maybe that's a good thing. ![]() The cinematography is unnoticeable, which would make it average, and just blends in. However, you can tell they have great chemistry, and enjoy working together. Like I said, the performances from the supporting cast are mediocre at best, but, once again, you wouldn't expect Oscar worthy portrayals in a teen musical like this one! The cast work well with what they've got, but what they've got isn't much. With a minimal runtime of just 93 minutes, there isn't much time for slow story building and development like Blade Runner 2049, but you couldn't expect much more from a film like this. There isn't one point that feels dragged or rushed, and the flow stays very consistent throughout. Some lines of dialogue are more cringe worthy than Anakin and Padme's romance in 'Attack of the Clones' (and that's saying something!) but you can't help but forgive such embarrassing dialogue and love it, because that's what makes it fun! The direction is, again, average but the pacing is surprisingly flawless. Kay Cannon's script is of average quality but entertainingly witty. However, a lot of the supporting characters aren't quite as pleasant or loveable. ![]() She's someone the audience can root for, and is easily likeable. ![]() Kendrick manages to carry the rest of the cast, mostly filled with mediocre performances, and stand out above them all due to the sassy, smart but adorably innocent character she plays. The lead character Beca, played wonderfully by the excellent Anna Kendrick, is also a high point in the film. The plot of Pitch Perfect 3 is so ridiculous and boring, but the comedy factor manages to make up for it, supplying the audience with constant laughs, particularly from Fat Amy played hilariously by Rebel Wilson, who can be irritating at some points, which is where the film suffers, however most scenes involving her are usually the best moments. Pitch Perfect 3 is your typical musical for teenage girls, not a particularly good film, but a most definitely enjoyable one filled with silly but humorous jokes, and witty dialogue.
